23 New Season Bags to Start Wearing Now

Handbags are like ice cream, there’s always room for more.

We love to smell autumn dancing in the breeze and see those crisp, colourful sunburnt leaves. Yet as it’s still too hot in the Middle East to handle outerwear and boots, the best way for fashion lovers to celebrate a new season is to update that arm candy.

Whether you’re looking for satchels, totes, luxe backpacks or top handle bags, the latter being one of this season’s big trends, our edit guarantees there’s something for everyone. Plus, you will love the versatility that enables you to instantly turn a clutch or shoulder bag into a crossbody thanks to many labels including detachable straps. What’s more, while the bags are functional and practical for daytime use, many of them are snazzy enough to hold on to for your night out.

If you’re looking for a gorgeous hue or up-to-date touches like snakeskin, animal prints and structured silhouettes, start clicking through.
